@miiamustang jos vaikuttaa ostopäätöksiin niin Intel ja Nvidia on Israelissa isolla rahalla ja intel lähti euroopassa järjestetystä teknotapahtumasta (tai joku semmonen) koska siellä kehdattiin arvostella länsimaiden tukea israelille.

Just overheard 2 workers building the house next door:

Worker 1: Know any trans women?
Worker 2: Yeah, my kid’s GF

Worker 1: Your kid’s a homo?
Worker 2: She calls it queer

Worker1: What do you call it?
Worker2: Her god damn business. Fuck off.

IL uutisoi "kuurovarkaista". Tällä tarkoitetaan varasta, joka feikkaa olevansa kuuro ja tarvitsee johonkin raha-apua. Joskus esim. hoitoon tai muuhun liittyen.

Oon kerran törmännyt tällaiseen kauan sitten. Huijari oli helppo paljastaa, kun teki nämä kaksi asiaa:

1. Viito hänelle. Tyyppi meni tästä ihan sekaisin.
2. Huuda perään. Tämä muuten toimi viimeksi.

Luikki sitten nopeasti tiehensä, kun ymmärsi ettei huijaus mennyt läpi.

Mua harmittaa vieläkin, kun en tajunnut tehdä tästä tyypistä ilmoitusta poliisille. Anyway. Jos kohtaat tällaisen henkilön. Voit ilmoittaa häkeen jos epäilet rikollista toimintaa.

Kuurojen Liitto ei tee rahakeräyksiä parkkipaikalla, eikä kotiovilla.

Cartoon by Ding (Jay Norwood Darling), May 14, 1921, published on the front page of the Des Moines Register, above the fold.

This is how long the war on active transportation has been going on, financed by Automotive lobbyists.

I imagine it was the wealthy that could afford the cars. They then exerted their entitlement to the roads that set laws into motion that gave motorists priority over pedestrians/cyclists.

@ned 1921... letting that sink in.

In the Netherlands we adopted a very similar car-centric approach after WW2. It was destroying our cities. From the 1960s a movement grew normalising biking, and in the process making traffic safer for everyone. It took us decades to get where we are today.

Keep up the fight ✊

@collectifission @ned and it was fuelled by a strong lobby called 'stop the child murder'. https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2015/may/05/amsterdam-bicycle-capital-world-transport-cycling-kindermoord
How Amsterdam became the bicycle capital of the world

In the 1960s, Dutch cities were increasingly in thrall to motorists, with the car seen as the transport of the future. It took the intolerable toll of child traffic deaths – and fierce activism – to turn Amsterdam into the cycling nirvana of today

I recognize the name Ding Darling from the National Wildlife Refuge on Sanibel Island, which I visited in the 1990s. Had no idea he was a cartoonist. Ding founded the National Wildlife Federation, designed the first federal duck stamp, and was a director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Cool beans. #AlwaysLearning https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ding_Darling

surprises some Americans that in the UK pedestrians and cyclists (and cattle herders) have priority over car drivers on roads anywhere in the UK - from tiny country lanes to national speed limit dual carriageways

the only exception is motorways where pedestrians and cyclists, and indeed cattle herders, are not allowed.

(I don't know the rules in canada)
